uiactionsheet

In my iOS application, I have a timer firing up, and when it fires, I need to be able to detect whether there's an Alert (UIAlertView) or an Action Sheet (UIActionSheet) open. One way would be to modify the code presenting the alerts/actionsheets - but unfortunately this is not an option in my case. So, the question is - is there a way of knowing/detecting whether an alert or action sheet have been opened? Is there any notifications sent upon opening, or any traversal of the view hierarchy to detect it? Thanks Sam Ritchie They do send an alert when they open, but only to their delegate --

Previous to iOS8 we used the UIActionSheet for showing alert and now we need to use the UIAlertController. When we used the UIActionSheet we could easily handle situations where the user clicked outside the pop up (which means he want to cancel the operation) by comparing the clickedButtonAtIndex to the cancelButtonIndex - if the user indeed pressed outside the popup we got the cancel button index in this function. How can we handle these situations with the new UIAlertController? I tried to use the "completion" block but it doesn't have any context. Is there an easy way to handle this? (other

I'm somewhat unclear on the object ownership patterns required for the following instances. When my UIViewController presents a popover controller, an action sheet, or another view controller as modal, am I required to hang onto a retained reference to that child controller until it's been dismissed? In other words, do the following lines of code effectively "transfer" ownership, or not? [aPopoverController presentPopoverFromBarButtonItem:someButtonItem permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:NO]; [anActionSheet showFromBarButtonItem:someButtonItem animated:NO];

on iOS 6 a change was that when you want to share something it brings up an action sheet similar to this: I have seen a few other apps that use this, is there a native way to do this without making a custom action sheet? Thanks! j9suvak NSString *textToShare = @"your text"; UIImage *imageToShare = [UIImage imageNamed:@"yourImage.png"]; NSArray *itemsToShare = @[textToShare, imageToShare]; UIActivityViewController *activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:itemsToShare applicationActivities:nil]; activityVC.excludedActivityTypes = @[UIActivityTypePrint,

I have working iOS application In order to support iOS8 , I am replacing UIAlertView/UIActionSheet with UIAlertController . Problem : For display UIAlertController I need presentViewController method of UIViewController class. But UIAlertView is display from classes which are inherited from UIView or NSObject , I can not get [self presentViewController...] method for obvious reason. My Work : I tried getting rootViewController form current window and display UIAlertController. [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow].rootViewController presentViewController ...] but have some rotation

I have created a UIActionSheet UIActionSheet * action = [[UIActionSheet alloc]initWithTitle:@"" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle: @"cancel" destructiveButtonTitle: @"OK" otherButtonTitles: nil]; [action showInView:self.view]; [action release]; On the event of the cancel button in the UIActionSheet I want to fire the event of a UIBarButtonItem , which is in my view. My question is how can I fire the button event(without touching the button) in the UIActionSheet delegate method ayoy Not knowing the current bar button item action you can invoke it this way: [barButtonItem.target performSelector
